KYIV, Nov 16 Ц Head of the EU Delegation to Ukraine Hugues Mingarelli said the European Union intends to examine in detail the law passed by Parliament on the cancellation of the competitive selection of heads of local administrations.

"We still need to study this new law, but it is obvious to us that people like heads of local administrations should be recruited based on their competence and we hope that this is how it will be," he told Interfax-Ukraine in Kyiv on Thursday.
